Hi everyone

I experienced a GPS problem since i update from build 3.0xxx

and i'm not alone, probably all Neo have this issue and i'm sure is a software bug

Here you can find interesting informations

http://talk.sonyericsson.com/message/145641#145641

the gps signal usually drops every 5 minutes without reason

there is a log in the discussione and very accurate dates

this is my last reply and experience:

"Oh my god, is totally right

in flight mode no gps disconnection !!!!!!

today 20km in the city with these settings:

wifi off - gms only - connection data off (i don't have a sim plane), my cell is totally out of the net

first 10 km gps drops every 5 minutes

last 10 km, same settings but flight mode ON

no more signal drops !!!

i don't know if crying or laughing

but it is clear this is a BUG

Sony do something, we hope in you"

I thinks would be simple correct this bug, the problem is very precise

like the wifi one that drops :(:(

what do you think about?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] maRRRco89:
Today 50km with Sygic gps navigation

flight mode ON

GREAT! signal perfect and very very precise

flight mode OFF

very bad, every 5:00.00 minutes the signal drops

this happen only with no Data Connection

most of you have data connection, so you don't observe the problem, but there is

agps must not work during navigation !!!

i'm unable to contact sony to solve this issue, xperia support center says me they don't speak with developers to cure this bug in the next release software

please help me, it is possible do something, some mods from your developers?

it is so bad navigate and can't receive call :(:(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] qianhui602:
really ? maybe u can upgrade the version to 4.0
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] maRRRco89:
Yes, without data connection, the gps drops every 5 minutes, not ecceptions

only in flight mode all is perfect

so i ask you, you are very expert and good developers

it is so difficult investigate this problem and found a solution?

I can't wait ICS, this is a big issue

I hope some developers from you can help me, found the problem and a simple solution, a command line, a script, something that allow the gps to work without data
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] tinyXperia:
I don't use data, but I've never experienced any problems with GPS.

Which kernel do you use? Maybe try the OC kernel by inteks?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] maRRRco89:
My is a stock model, rooted, with last firmware 4.0.2.062

the kernel is stock

i don't know to think, in flight mode works well, with no data connection drops every 5 minutes, you says is perfect :confused::confused:, my not

but it isn't an hardware issue, this is sure

some ideas?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] tinyXperia:
I usually don't use gps that long, only for getting my position for a tweet e.g. But the times I tried it worked perfect.

How is the connection in Google Maps?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] LenAsh:
I use Google Nav for hours on end in the car and never have an issue. STOCK .42 or .62
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] maRRRco89:
google navigator works with data

so not is my problem, that only occurs with no data connection

i don't use google maps, but sygic gps navigation, and all the time the signal drops every 5.00 minutes not a second more or less

this precise time let me to think there is something wrong in the firmware

tha hardware is good, because in flight mode i can navigate for hours

p.s i tried a firmware repair, and this didn't happen with the firmware 3.0xxx.145
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] LenAsh:
Sorry, didn't quite understand your OP then. :-)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] maRRRco89:
Ok, if you don't use the gps more then 5 minutes, you can't observe any problem

so, also your experience not is concerned about my problem ;)

however thanks for the support, i hope someone can confirm the problem first, and then find a solution
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] tinyXperia:
You can cache maps. I do that quite often. Menu,labs,cache maps

via Sony Ericsson Xperia
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Marcell96:
My GPS tracking is fine,

50 Minutes tried at most....

(.62, inteks kernel , rooted, with theme)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] maRRRco89:
Ok, you use an other kernel, not the stock one

but do you use data ?

even if i mean a stock model without data connection, here is the bug
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] mrm2007:
Hi,

I can confirm this bug too. I didn't notice it before ,but it's for a second only,so that is not critical for me.(I'm on official .42 ROM, no data connection)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] maRRRco89:
The common bug cause disconnections every 5 minutes for about 15-20s

I just discovered also Xperia Arc is affected from this

probably you can see only a second, but with different softwares the behavior is different.

Wich navigations software do you use?

It is clear is a bug, and this can appear in many forms, but with a common point, one disconnection every 5 minutes !!!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] maRRRco89:
Bug not fixed with 0.62 firmware

But, there is not a developer that can solve it himself ?

If i wait sony ... :mad::mad:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] woody.woodpecker:
if you dont have a data plan, why not leave "data traffic" on at all time? it wont cost you anything, since you dont send/receive any data through mobile network.

i only used the gps once (about 40 minutes), with "data traffic" on, and i did not notice any signal drop.

i think this "data traffic" goes a bit deeper: when i first got the phone i switched "data traffic" to off (no data plan, anyway) and i tried to access the internet via wifi. wireless router connected, but nothing further worked until i turned "data traffic" on.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] maRRRco89:
that's not work

if i leave data on, the system tryes the same to receive data for gps and the signal drop !!

Also I had a gps working well, but only with firmware 3.0.xxx.145

Firstly Format ur memory card......

Plug the SD card into your computer. Drag the ROM's ZIP file to your SD card, and wait for it to copy.

When it's done copying, eject the SD card and put it back in your phone. Reboot into Recovery mode

Use your volume keys to navigate the menus, and your power button to select menu items.WIPE DATA AND WIPE CACHE PARTITION..... Scroll down to "Install ZIP From SD Card" and navigate to the ZIP file you just copied over. Give it time to flash the ROM

When it's done, reboot your phone.;)

2nd method

Firstly Format ur memory card........

Open in Recovery mode......Wipe data and Wipe Cache.....click reboot now....after phone starts it shows some error and phone may struck or u will be directed to the same problem u had i.e, rebootin several times or Strucking at start up screen....dont mind it....Now turn off the mobile by removing battery and start phone in DOWNLOAD MODE and connect ur mobile to pc via usb.......

Open Odin multi downloader v4.38........flash the rom........

NOW UR MOBILE IS ALIVE.....

NOTE: 1st method worked for mah friend long ago before my phone bricked....2nd method worked for me(self xperience :p).......:D

Cant power it at all

but detect usb from computer and odin despite cant enter downloading mode, but still can flash the phone.

i tried with oneclick but it seems doesnt detect the phone,,

anyone can help ?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] blugonjic:
As it is said in a post above, this is probably a hardbrick so only a service centre may help. If you are somewhere where you can get to an official Samsung shop then tell them that Kies wen nuts and the phone turned just off.

If not, I am sure there are some mobile shops near you that can handle it. I got mine hardbricked with the same symptoms and some repair guy got it repaired (don't ask me how). Charged me approximately 20 Euros. Up to you buddy. Try your luck. It may also be it is not reparable anywhere oother than Samsung officia shops though.

Anyway, wish you luck :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Spliddo:
Good now fix the people's hard bricked phones :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] sf55:
successful brick is not unbrickable

This thread's title is misleading, the person that started it clearly did not understand the term "bricked". The reason why they call it bricked is because at after you bricked your device is pretty much as useful to you as a brick, hence by definition you cannot ever unbrick (without physically modifying the device).

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] D.O.C:
Screenshots? Impossible, you will need a video for it...ill give u a hint frames/sec :)

Try to search for hyperdroid in youtube, there are plenty of videos there. Look at the spinnibg circle when the device is "thinking", its not pause like on stock, its smooth :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] alexdoux25:
Thank you very much for this interesting job.

But what's about Sense GB ROMs?

I've edited xml files according your tutorial in the framework-res.apk in my 3.5 Sense ROM for HD2 and received permanent FC of HTC Sense.:confused:

Any advice?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] D.O.C:
FC?, u edited and compiled framework?, I modded sense before (HTC Desire HD), and it fid not gave me problems. Upload your framework, Ill do it for ya. But it should work when compiling framework-res.apk.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] alexdoux25:
Thanks once more.

I've solved FC problems already.:)

It was my mistake compiling apk. Now everything is OK.

absolutly love this mod on my Galaxy note..

a question though - can anything be done to smooth out the progress bar ?

Mitch
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] D.O.C:
Yes there is, as a matter of fact we use that mod aswell.

At mobile right now so cant give u specifics, but that is related to progressbar, adding more png to drawable hdpi and to xml that call for them, I will get back to you on that one.

If you notice, this are very simple moda that make our devices better. Very simple ones.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mitchsub:
would very much appreciate that mate - hopefully the chef's will incorporate them in their up and coming ROM's although I might have a play myself :)

three things I don't like about my Note is -

1. Spinners - which you have sorted

2. Progress Bar - which I would like to smooth out

3. Unlock and Call select - also like to smooth out

thanks again for you time and guide

Mitch
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] D.O.C:
So u would basically want a hyperdroid rom dont you :P

Ill try to do the progress bar stuff today :)

Hi, I know there are a few topic about this, but I checked it and don't have an answer.

I want to get work this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1427510

So I dowloaded smoothspinners.7z and copy famework-res.apk from my phon to place-apk-here-for-modding in sdk folder (I installed APK Multi-Tool version 2.0)

I opened APK Multi-Tool and chose 9 (decompile) next go to project folder and replace file from smoothspinners.7z to framework-res.apk/res/drawable.

After that I chose 11 (compile) in APK Multi-Tool

"is this a system apk?" I chose "y"(yes)

"Aside from the signatures, would you like to copy over any additional files that you didn't modify from the original apk in order to ensure least # of errors" I chose "n" (no)

Next rename "unsignedframework-res.apk" from place-apk-here-for-modding to framework-res.apk and copy to android-sdk/platform-tools/

Next I adb:

adb remount

adb push /system/framework/framework-res.apk

adb remount

Next change permission to 644

And after reboot I have bootloop:mad::mad:

Can someone help me, please?:confused::confused: (of coures I have backup in recovery so my phon work, but I want to know what I made wrong in this steps)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] D.O.C:
Seems like you are not copying signatures. Copy from original apk to new meta-inf folfer and androidmanifest.xml

Great Eye Candy! Thanks for this.

I may have missed it, but I did not see it mentioned in this thread:

This worked perfectly in Froyo (HTC Sense)!

Made a bigger difference in the 'feel' than I expected!

I know the thread is getting a little old, but I was also curious about the Smoother Progress Bar, or smoother anything else for that matter! Any update on that one?

hi,

i bought a telcel mexico LG-P970H on ebay and i want to unlock it. i have the code to unlock the phone but i need LG code (like 2945#*970#) to have a popup to enter my unlock code.

for LG-P970 the code is 2945#*970# but that not work for P970H

thx :)

[LG Optimus Black] mordormx:
I had the same problem

It looks like the rom used by telcel is modified and they remove some options, in my case, i rooted the phone and replace the rom for the open europe version, after that, the hidden menu appears with all the normal options and i was able to unlockit with the imei code.
[LG Optimus Black] Pr3dator?:
I have the lg p970g what is the code

Envoyé depuis mon LG-P970 avec Tapatalk
[LG Optimus Black] ogremount:
The code is specific for each IMEI and to make it more fun you have very limited number of tries. After that it locks permanently. So it is worth getting the code from reputable reseller.

I had to flash from CM back to stock 10d to get hidden menu and unlock.

I've first rooted and changed the telcel ROM with another one following this steps:

Then I dialed 2945#*970# and an hidden menu appeared. From there I selected "Network Lock" and here it is where you have to fill with an unlock code.

Now I'm looking for a good website where to buy the unlock code :)
